02:47:31 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:47:31 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20220325@024452 UTC
02:47:31 Imager readout modes:
02:47:31   0 is Fast
02:47:31   1 is Normal
02:47:31 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:47:31 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
02:47:31 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
02:47:31 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:47:36 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
